A participant in our Youth Housing First program received some great news! After spending several months in a hotel with a young child, they were approved for first market housing and signed a lease. Safety in our community begins with access to stable housing. With a safe place to call their own, this family can re-establish a sense of structure and routine. Our housing team will continue to provide support and referrals to help this family navigate their housing journey confidently.   #communitysafety #housingfirst
